Life in Urban India

Life in Urban India : "You work hard all your life and save money; only to be too old to enjoy it. Thats the middle class way of living"

Life in Urban India : "With sky-rocketing property rates and every little space taking away 5 years of your hard earned money; its beyond comprehension why people sulk when people walk out of their lives; ain't they giving some room for fresh air?"


Life in Urban India : "Space does not spare the cyber world either; all you get is 140 characters on a networking site; I am spaced out."


Life in Urban India: "The corporate race is not about breaking barriers, not about innovative technology, not about team work; it is all about impressing your boss and preferably your company's competitors."


Life in Urban India : " People are a treat to watch when they display unity, solidarity, strength and brotherhood; you definitely are getting some treatment, when they turn into a mob"


Life in Urban India :" An American friend on a month long official visit to India was very dearly missing his wife, rather more of companionship. He walked into a most happening pub, very convincingly found a companion to walk into his hotel room..he took another 2 hours to find a shop at midnight for condoms. And we talk on population explosion"


Life In Urban India :" BPO' in India has created employment opportunities to many. It provides an excellent platform to educated youngsters and a helping hand with lucrative salaries to college drop-outs to avoid filling those benches in the classrooms again. It has turned into a match-making centre and an extra-marital hub too"


Life In Urban India:"A dear friend of mine, took up Science after his tenth grade, was awaiting his results to decide making his career in engineering or medicine. Due to lack of "good" marks in Biology, he preferred engineering. After his engineering he secured a seat in a prime university in US and pursued MBA in Finance. Today, he is an Investment Banker in London. All I know is that he re-engineered his career"


Life In Urban India:" Thanks to the ever growing professionalism; begging too is a profession and beggars have territories marked to themselves. It is quite an organized association. Their professionalism is highly rewarding; most are millionaires today"

 

Life In Urban India:"Hunger strikes are magical; A politician spends Rs 20 crores to go on a fast to bring to light to the ruling government the financial problems of the poor farmers. That's vote bank politics. Incredible"

 

Life In Urban India:" In the world's largest democracy, Power and Authority are passed on to the next generation to continue the influx of money, the power of control & authority and exploiting. Service to mankind they say, perhaps Service to their kind of men"

 

Life In Urban India:" The best of population ecologists, zoologists chased a few hundred tigers to get their count, unfortunately missed the big National Reserves, hopefully people studying the population and demography do not miss an entire state"
